Ji Wanwan couldn't help but laugh.
Where was she busy? She was clearly bored to death.
Clearly, Xu Siming was shy, but he still used that kind of excuse.
She waved her hand, "I came to see you today because I have something important to discuss."
Xu Siming immediately became serious and sat up straight, "What is it?"
Ji Wanwan smiled shyly, "I just realized another superpower, Equivalence Healing. I want to try healing you with it to see how effective this superpower is."
"What?!" Xu Siming couldn't sit still, "You realized another superpower?!"
Hadn't Ji Wanwan just realized space control not long ago? And now she had realized a new superpower?
How come he couldn't realize any at all?
Could it be that students of life sciences also have a unique talent in realizing superpowers?
He felt truly unwilling to accept this!
Ji Wanwan felt a strange sensation in her heart as she glanced at Xu Siming.
The next second, she was amused by Xu Siming's jealous and wistful look, "Senior, don't rush. Maybe you will realize a superpower in a few days."
Xu Siming haughtily turned his head away, "That's a must."
Without further words, Ji Wanwan started healing his injuries with Equivalence Healing.
She placed her hand on Xu Siming's wound and then closed her eyes to sense it.
A flash of luminescence emerged from the palm of Ji Wanwan's hand, and Xu Siming's wound began to slowly heal.
As time passed, Ji Wanwan's face turned paler, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. Xu Siming, feeling distressed, reached out to support her, "Junior Sister Ji, my wound has already healed. You must stop now."
Feeling that the muscle tissues deep in Xu Siming's wound had also recovered, Ji Wanwan withdrew her hand.
For Level 1 Equivalence Healing, Ji Wanwan used a small portion of personal supplies worth 20,000 yuan, along with 30% of her own spiritual power and physical strength, to completely heal Xu Siming's wound.
Seeing Xu Siming's abdomen, now scar-free, Ji Wanwan smiled contentedly.
Although it was quite tiring, this superpower was quite useful.
Of course, it would be better if it consumed less energy.
With this experience, Ji Wanwan now knew how much to prepare for exchanges next time.
She sat upright, but because of her excessive consumption, she was too exhausted, turned dizzy, and fainted into Xu Siming's arms.
With a warm and soft beauty in his arms, Xu Siming became flustered.
He carefully and tenderly moved Ji Wanwan from his arms to the bed, thoughtfully tucked her in, then sat on a chair by the window and silently guarded the slumbering girl.
As dusk approached, the sun sank in the west.
The patchy sunlight, filtering through the clouds, scattered across the ravaged earth.
When Ji Wanwan woke up, the sky through the window was bathed in red clouds, and Xu Siming, tall and handsome, stood in the sunset like a figure from a medieval painting, pleasing to the eyes.
She had slept deeply and still felt groggy even after waking up.
It seemed she shouldn't lightly expend such a large amount of physical and spiritual power in the future.
"How do you feel? Is there any discomfort?" Xu Siming, who saw her get up and walked in from the balcony, asked with concern.
Ji Wanwan shook her head, "I'm fine, but what about you? Do you feel any discomfort from your wound?"
Xu Siming also shook his head, "The wound has healed very well. There's no discomfort. I could even go out and kill a couple of zombies right now."
"Pfff…" Ji Wanwan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
It was evident that Xu Siming was really eager to obtain a superpower.
She pursed her lips, "The zombies need to be killed, but not right now."
Xu Siming casually mentioned it and did not expect Ji Wanwan to take it seriously. He paused, "Then when do we kill them?"
Ji Wanwan touched her flattened stomach and smiled innocently, "After dinner, we'll make a plan and then go kill them!"
Xu Siming: "..."
Half a month had passed since the apocalypse began, and the authorities had completely lost communication as the zombie crisis exploded in full.
In her previous life, alone and isolated, Ji Wanwan had limited access to information. Critical information was often seriously delayed, causing her to always be in a passive state of escape.
This life was different from the last. The refuge had initially taken shape, and with weapons and superpowers at her side, Ji Wanwan felt it was time to venture out of the refuge and explore the outside world.
In the apocalypse, seizing the initiative meant not passively taking blows.
Moreover, completing System missions came with generous rewards; she felt the rewards merited the risk.
Thus, going out to kill zombies was something she took seriously!
6 p.m., inside room A201.
Xu Siming, while indulging in boiled tripe, listened to Ji Wanwan's plan.
For their first operation, she didn't plan to bring many people.
Xu Siming had some combat experience and could drive, and since he knew she had superpowers, he could coordinate closely with her. Therefore, Ji Wanwan planned to take only Xu Siming with her.
Not knowing what the situation was like outside or whether there were zombies that had evolved to have Crystal Cores, she planned to first head to the nearest supermarket with the goal of gathering supplies while tentatively assessing the current state of zombie evolution.
The planned time for the operation was set for the following morning.
At that time, they would meet at 7:30 a.m. outside the cafeteria.
All was set, Ji Wanwan standing up with her soda in hand, "I declare, Scout Squad 1 is officially established! May we have a smooth journey! Cheers!"
Xu Siming curved his lips, stood up, and clinked his glass, "To smooth sailing!"
That night, everything was settled.
A thrilled and anticipatory Xu Siming spiritedly left room A201.
At that moment, Qi Hao, who had gone out because he was hungry, just happened to witness the scene.
Qi Hao: "?"
Isn't this Wanwan's room?
Why did Xu Siming come out from there?
And why does he seem so happy?
What did they do?
Thinking of some unsavory possibilities, Qi Hao felt uneasy.
Damn it! This guy, how dare he move in so quickly?!
Qi Hao tensed up, his fists clenched!
No, tomorrow he'd have to probe Wanwan!
The next day, early morning, 7:30.
When Ji Wanwan arrived, Xu Siming was already waiting at the cafeteria entrance with a huge backpack.
Having heard Ji Wanwan's plan to collect supplies the day before, Xu Siming had specially bought the largest backpack available at the personal items vending machine.
But seeing Ji Wanwan arrive lightly equipped, without any storage items, he was dumbfounded.
How were they supposed to gather supplies now?
Furthermore, he keenly noticed a new ring on the index finger of Ji Wanwan's right hand and couldn't help but look twice.
Noticing his gaze, Ji Wanwan lifted her hand with a smile, "I made this ring using my Space superpower to facilitate gathering supplies later."
Xu Siming: "?!"
There's such a trick?
In an instant, Xu Siming felt slighted again.
What he didn't know was that this was a ring specially made by the System for Ji Wanwan the previous night, as she was concerned about exposing the System Space.
Watching Ji Wanwan with envy, Xu Siming's tone was sour, "Junior Sister Ji, this makes me look pretty silly carrying this big bag."
"Hahahaha..."
Ji Wanwan's eyes crinkled into crescents.
To ensure their departure didn't alarm others in the refuge, Ji Wanwan took Xu Siming to the storeroom on the first floor, equipped themselves with a Military Shovel and a dagger from the System Space, and then teleported beyond the safe perimeter of the refuge.
"Swoosh—"
Two people suddenly appearing.
The zombie wandering on the spot: "?"
